Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 pieces Lasagna noodles
- 2 cups Ricotta cheese
- 2 cups Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 0.5 cups Grated Parmesan cheese
- 3 cups Fresh spinach
- 1 large Egg
- 3 cups Marinara sauce
- 1 clove Clove of garlic (minced)
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Cook the lasagna noodles according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and lay them flat on a clean kitchen towel to prevent sticking.
In a skillet over medium heat, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil and sauté the minced garlic until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the fresh spinach and cook until wilted, about 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ricotta cheese, 1 cup of shredded mozzarella, grated Parmesan, cooked spinach (squeeze out any excess moisture if needed), egg, salt, and black pepper. Mix until fully combined.
Spread 1 cup of marinara sauce evenly over the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish.
Spread about 2-3 tablespoons of the ricotta mixture across the surface of each lasagna noodle. Roll each noodle up tightly, starting from one end.
Place the rollups seam-side down in the prepared baking dish. Repeat with the remaining noodles and filling.
Pour the remaining marinara sauce over the top of the rollups, ensuring they are well-covered. Sprinkle the remaining 1 cup of shredded mozzarella over the sauce.
Cover the baking dish tightly with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes.
Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese on top is melted and bubbly.
Remove from the oven and let the lasagna rollups rest for 5 minutes before serving.
